Power Line Communication Technologies: Modeling and Simulation of PRIME Physical Layer
Power Line Communications is a relatively new
area of telecommunication. PLC employs full duplex methods
for transmitting data over power lines as medium of
transmission of electrical signals over a grid. PLC technologies
are used in advanced meter reading, home automation and
Public street lighting. Several PLC technologies classified
based on the operational frequency range, are explored in this
paper. PRIME is a new NBPLC system, which uses OFDM in
its physical layer, for power line communication in the last
mile. This work also focused on PRIME’s physical
specifications, which was modeled in MATLAB/SIMULINK.
In this paper, the performance of PRIME when its data is
modulated using DQPSK and 4-QAM in four (4) channel
models is shown.
Porting of the 802.15.4 stack on FreeRTOS in Asymmetric Multi Processing contexts for IoT solutions
L'obiettivo di questa tesi è effettuare il porting dello stack IEEE 802.15.4, che era già stato sviluppato per il sistema operativo Erika EE, all'interno di un ambiente FreeRTOS. Il tutto viene eseguito in un contesto di Asymmetric Multi Processing, al fine di delegare la gestione di reti IoT real-time a processori dedicati, mentre quello principale può occuparsi della gestione di tutte le altre periferiche
6G White Paper on Machine Learning in Wireless Communication Networks
The focus of this white paper is on machine learning (ML) in wireless
communications. 6G wireless communication networks will be the backbone of the
digital transformation of societies by providing ubiquitous, reliable, and
near-instant wireless connectivity for humans and machines. Recent advances in
ML research has led enable a wide range of novel technologies such as
self-driving vehicles and voice assistants. Such innovation is possible as a
result of the availability of advanced ML models, large datasets, and high
computational power. On the other hand, the ever-increasing demand for
connectivity will require a lot of innovation in 6G wireless networks, and ML
tools will play a major role in solving problems in the wireless domain. In
this paper, we provide an overview of the vision of how ML will impact the
wireless communication systems. We first give an overview of the ML methods
that have the highest potential to be used in wireless networks. Then, we
discuss the problems that can be solved by using ML in various layers of the
network such as the physical layer, medium access layer, and application layer.
Zero-touch optimization of wireless networks using ML is another interesting
aspect that is discussed in this paper. Finally, at the end of each section,
important research questions that the section aims to answer are presented
Wireless communication, identification and sensing technologies enabling integrated logistics: a study in the harbor environment
In the last decade, integrated logistics has become an important challenge in
the development of wireless communication, identification and sensing
technology, due to the growing complexity of logistics processes and the
increasing demand for adapting systems to new requirements. The advancement of
wireless technology provides a wide range of options for the maritime container
terminals. Electronic devices employed in container terminals reduce the manual
effort, facilitating timely information flow and enhancing control and quality
of service and decision made. In this paper, we examine the technology that can
be used to support integration in harbor's logistics. In the literature, most
systems have been developed to address specific needs of particular harbors,
but a systematic study is missing. The purpose is to provide an overview to the
reader about which technology of integrated logistics can be implemented and
what remains to be addressed in the future
